When the two looked at each other, they both saw the flowers in each other's arms, but neither of them spoke first.

The only happy one was Zan Zan, who was completely unaware of the undercurrent between the two. He just lowered his head to sniff this bouquet and then that bouquet, looking quite pleased with himself.

Feeling happy, Zhou Yanqian felt more inclined to share. He turned to Jinxi and said, "Mommy, look, Daddy bought me flowers too."

Jinxi hummed in agreement and slowly walked over.

Zhou Linxu, who was originally kneeling on one knee, stood up upon seeing this, and even unconsciously tightened his arms, almost crushing the delicate flowers in his arms.

Did Jinxi buy him flowers too?

Jinxi walked over to Zanzan, patted his head, and said in a much softer voice, "So beautiful, it suits the baby perfectly."

Zhou Yanqian chuckled twice, then tilted his head back, holding a bouquet of flowers even bigger than himself, and said softly, "I'm going to show it to my mom."

Let's show it to Dad again.

Zhou Linxu lowered his head and said, "Okay, you carry the flowers, but be careful when you walk."

Zhou Yanqian said "oh" and happily went downstairs. If it were any other time, he would definitely have noticed the special feelings between his father and Xiao Xi, but today he was too overwhelmed by the bouquet of flowers.

It's truly a case of "being blinded by two flowers."

Zan Zan left, leaving only the two of them in the living room.

The two were only two steps apart, and neither made the first move.

Finally, the big orange cat, who had been left behind, sat between them and made two puzzled whimpering sounds, which brought the two of them back to their senses.

Zhou Linxu walked over first and handed her the flowers he was carrying: "These roses suit you very well."

Pearls are wrapped around the light pink roses, and white tulle falls on them, just like a bride's gorgeous veil.

Jin Xi handed her bouquet to Zhou Linxu as well, saying, "...Thank you."

Zhou Linxu lowered his eyes slightly. Unlike his own flowers, this bouquet was clearly chosen by Jin Xi herself.

Zhou Linxu: She has me in her heart.

With this realization, Zhou Linxu's heart clearly began to soar.

His eyes were smiling, and his gaze towards Jinxi was so gentle it could melt your heart.

Jinxi felt a little embarrassed by the stares, and she lowered her head and said, "I bought it for you while I was buying it for Zanzan."

"Okay." Zhou Linxu accepted it readily: "I really like the flowers you brought for me."

He softened his tone and said, "But I bought it especially for you. I wasn't prepared yesterday, so I'm making up for it today. I hope it's in time."

Jinxi gave a light hum, not too loud, which showed he knew what was good for him.

Zhou Linxu stared at her expectantly.

Jin Xi looked away and coughed lightly: "Shall we go upstairs and chat?"

Zhou Linxu nodded, still appearing somewhat reserved, but in reality, if you were to give him a tail, it would probably leave a blur.

He thought it would take several days for Jinxi to recover, but he didn't expect her to figure it out in just one day.

At first, Jinxi really did think the same way as Zhou Linxu, and she didn't even think that much when buying flowers.

But when I saw Zhou Linxu, I felt that since things had already happened, it would be better to talk things out sooner rather than later.

Jinxi and Zhou Linxu each carried a bouquet of flowers up the elevator. To prevent Zanzan from suddenly appearing, the two went directly to the guest room on the third floor.

Jin Xi went in first, and as soon as she turned around, Zhou Linxu leaned in and kissed her on the cheek.

Jinxi: ?

Is this person here to have a talk?

Jin Xi gave him a slightly coquettish look, raising her voice slightly: "Zhou Linxu!"

Zhou Linxu responded with an "Oh," and said, "I'm here, go ahead."

Jinxi couldn't help herself and raised her hand to pinch his cheek: "Why are you becoming so shameless?"

Yesterday it could be said that it was just a momentary impulse, but today it's physical contact! Deliberate seduction!

Zhou Linxu lowered his head, letting her squeeze him more comfortably, but his tone was somewhat aggrieved: "I didn't."

How is he shameless?

The moment he saw the flowers, he already knew Jinxi's feelings.

She didn't just buy it for him on a whim; she bought it specifically for herself, just as she felt when she bought the flowers.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have been so bold.

There's a saying that goes something like this: Those who are favored are fearless.

Jin Xi didn't say it, but Zhou Linxu felt it himself (ノ∇︎〃 ).

Jin Xi sighed, but Zhou Linxu covered her mouth.

Zhou Linxu said earnestly, "Don't sigh, Xiao Xi, what do you want to tell me?"

Jinxi didn't hesitate much this time: "What are your plans regarding Zanzan's background?"

Zhou Linxu looked somewhat bewildered: "What?"

Jinxi explained, "We had a contract before, and Zanzan's background was a trade secret to me. But now that we're together, things are different. I don't want to lie to my parents."

Her parents are the best parents in the world. She was already very guilty about the contract marriage in front of them, but she could comfort herself and treat it as an S-level confidential project.

But feelings are different.

Zhou Linxu understood and said, "Of course we should tell Mom and Dad."

His thoughts were actually the same as Jinxi's; now that they were together, some things naturally needed to be discussed openly.

Jinxi is also a treasure of the Jin family, so he should naturally give him full respect.

Jinxi looked at him: "Isn't Zanzan's background the biggest secret to you?"

Zhou Linxu pulled her to sit at the foot of the bed: "It was a secret because I was afraid I wouldn't be able to take good care of him, but things are different now."

Zhou Linxu said gently, "I was extreme before. After moving my sister-in-law's grave, I kept thinking, was the path I planned for him definitely the right one? If he finds out the truth in the future, will he hate me for being too controlling and making him unable to distinguish between his parents?"

Zan Zan is a child who came into this world because of love and anticipation.

Although things didn't go as planned, Zan Zan now has the love of his wife and wife, as well as the love of his maternal grandparents and friends.

His world is abundant.

Affluent people are capable of overcoming the hardships of this world.

Previously, Zan Zan's upbringing and background felt like a mountain pressing down on him, as if he had entered a dead end.

But now things are different; he sees new possibilities in Jinxi.

Zhou Linxu chuckled softly: "Actually, what you said before was right. Even if I tell Zan Zan, I'm still his father."

Jinxi reached out and placed her hand on the back of his hand, saying, "Zanzan isn't as fragile as you think."

Zan Zan is the most insightful child she has ever met.

Zhou Linxu grasped her hand in return: "Xiao Xi, I always thought I could handle all the accidents and things, but once you feel warmth, you realize that you are not as strong as you thought."

All the stubbornness is just waiting for that ray of sunlight that belongs to them.
